research (Neuro-)endocrinology of epithelial hair follicle stem cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research Mesotherapy using dutasteride-containing preparation in treatment of female pattern hair loss: photographic, morphometric and ultrustructural evaluation
Dutasteride-containing mesotherapy effectively treats female hair loss, improving density and thickness with minimal side effects.
research Fructus panax ginseng extract promotes hair regeneration in C57BL/6 mice
Panax ginseng extract helps mice grow hair.
research An ultrastuctural study of hair fiber damage and restoration following treatment with permanent hair dye
